Are you sure this is an unconditional dependency?

When I read tools/Makefile, I see:

HOSTLDLIBS_mkeficapsule += -lgnutls -luuid
hostprogs-$(CONFIG_TOOLS_MKEFICAPSULE) += mkeficapsule

so it's only configurations with CONFIG_TOOLS_MKEFICAPSULE=y that need
host-gnutls.

So unless I'm missing something, the host-gnutls dependency should not
be made a new mandatory dependency, and instead a "U-Boot needs
host-gnutls" option should be added, like
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_NEEDS_OPENSSL.

Thanks!

Thomas
